win32: emulate Git for Windows in symlink support Emulate the Git for Windows `core.symlinks` support. Since symbolic links are generally enabled for Administrator (and _may_ be enabled due to enabling Developer mode) but symbolic links are still sufficiently uncommon on Windows that Git users are expected to explicitly opt-in to symbolic links by enabling `core.symlinks=true` in a global (or xdg or system) configuration. When `core.symlinks=true` is set globally _and_ symbolic links support is detected then new repositories created will not have a `core.symlinks` set. If `core.symlinks` is _not_ set then no detection will be performed, and `core.symlinks=false` will be set in the repository configuration.
